- a five star movie all the way-strapped
this is movie is so good, you don't see movies like these anymore.the movie captivates you about crooked cops and it demonstrates how far people will go to better their life situations.i highly recommend this movie for anybody that wants to see cops and street criminals dealing with guns,but its more about survival for these good actors.fredo starr is such a good actor like tupac shakur, he makes you feel like hes the real person being portrayed.
